Lisa Noble employs her own image as a vehicle through which to convey how she interprets physical as well as less tangible notions of identity through beauty. An array of past and contemporary female stock characters assists in this ongoing process of illustrated self-evaluation. Inspired by photographs and imagination, recurring subject matter includes fashion models, pinup girls, superheroines, waitresses, nymphs, and silver screen stars to name a few.

In a currently ongoing body of work, Lisa is exploring fashion design and illustration through mixed media including traditional works on board, and canvas, as well as sculptural works in fabric.

Lisa Noble was born Lisa Armstrong Bertnick, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, Canada in 1973. She studied fine art at the Alberta College of Art and Design and completed her BFA at the Corcoran College of Art and Design in Washington, D.C. in 2001.
